Hello everyone,
Well...What I am going to say. Need to decide how to move forward with the GMAT prep.
Existing data: 6 months spent on prep for GMAT classic edition, went through Manhattan books, TTP prep course, numerous videos about the verbal part, even got a tutor for sentence correction, passed official Mocks. Quant is my strength, but I can't say that it compensates for the lack of knowledge in the verbal part in terms of global score ( I am talking about SC mostly here). The result for the verbal in Mocks is v27. The last month is purely dedicated to RC, SC, and CR, so not sure what score I can get now, but definitely not v40 as needed for a good overall score.
So, here is a decision that should be made:
1) Should I proceed with grinding SC and pass the GMAT classic edition?
2) Should I switch to the Focus edition? I have no idea what to expect and how to prepare for Data insights questions. Are they different from IR? Also, I read that DS section from Quant moved to Data Insights. Are those are similar questions as previously in Quant or they modified somehow?
3) Should I continue to prepare for the GMAT classic, and after that switch to the Focus edition? Is there much difference between them, that I don't need to spend again huge amount of time on new preparation? Is there enough time in this case to be ready for Round 2?
4) Any other options or considerations.

If you decide to retake the current version of the GMAT, perhaps including/working with a study buddy who is really strong on Verbal could be helpful. If they need help with Quant, that could be a good fit. There's a study buddy thread on gmatclub you can check out.
How to get a V40 or higher on the GMAT? What about a V51?

Hi,
I registered there and tried, but that's not something that worked fine for me. There is a huge amount of everything that should be covered and gmat buddy can't transition all the knowledge.
